Epic Collaboration Alert!
Bethesda Softworks and Marvel Games are dropping major news – they’re teaming up with Arkane Lyon, the brains behind DEATHLOOP and Dishonored, to bring us a new Blade game. Talk about a powerhouse trio!
Half a Century of Blade: The Perfect Celebration
Marvel’s vamp-hunting iconoclast, Blade, is hitting a big 5-0, and what better way to celebrate than with a game? Bill Rosemann, Marvel Games’ creative bigwig, is all praise for Arkane Lyon, calling them the dream team for Blade’s anniversary bash.
Development Diaries: Immersion and Innovation Unleashed
Arkane Lyon is just getting started, but they promise a game dripping with their signature immersive gameplay and top-notch storytelling. This isn’t just any game – it’s a Blade game with an all-new story, and the stakes are high (no pun intended).
A Personal Touch: Arkane Lyon’s Vision for Blade
Dinga Bakaba, the Game Director at Arkane Lyon, shares a personal connection with Blade. He’s hyped to put a unique spin on the daywalker, especially as Blade becomes a stake-wielding hero in Bakaba’s own hometown, Paris. That’s right, gamers – get ready to hunt vamps in the City of Lights!
Paris Under Vampire Siege: A Supernatural Emergency
In this game, Paris isn’t just about romance and baguettes – it’s under a vampire lockdown! With nightfall bringing terror, it’s up to Blade (and you) to bring dawn back to Paris, one vampire at a time.
Style Meets Substance: Reimagining Blade
Sebastien Mitton, co-creative boss at Arkane Lyon, is all in on reinventing Blade’s look. Think classic trench coat and shades, but with a bold, modern twist. This game isn’t just playing it safe – it’s pushing boundaries in both art and gameplay.
Arkane Lyon’s vision for Blade is not just a game; it’s a tribute, an innovation, and a brand-new take on a beloved hero. With an original story set in a vamp-infested Paris and a promise of immersive gameplay, this game is set to redefine what it means to walk in the shoes of Marvel’s fiercest vampire hunter.
